Best Events In Glasgow

There's no doubt that ARTA is one of Glasgow's most unique bar and restaurants but did you know it also hosts a load of exciting events? From comedy clubs and Flamenco Fridays through to themed nights and their famed Club Cabaret, there's a lot to check out.

Once a month, Sticks'n'Sushi offer up a real treat to diners with their Omasake - Sake & Bites Pairing Experience. With talented chefs and sake sommeliers taking the reins, guests will be taken on a culinary journey where choose what's on your plate is not an option.

Six curated courses are served alongside sake pairings carefully selected to amplify the flavours of the food. Gain a new appreciation for seasonality, craftsmanship and creative expression in Japanese cooking and enjoy an elevated omakase experience. 

A brunch where you've got a top-tier DJ, delicious Japanese food and quirky cocktails fighting for your attention? It can only be Sticks'n'Sushi's Brunch Society.

Let the upbeat tracks from the DJ get you in the mood for the feast ahead – think tasty sharing plates, servings of maki, the venue's infamous sticks and a coconut rice pudding dessert. You thought you'd be going thirsty? Think again. The ticket includes a cocktail flight per person, including three house favourites: sake lychee martini, Yuzu Zoo and hibiscus margarita. 

Get yourself down to Berlinkys this May to relive all the magic of Motown at the Soul Supper Immersive Dining Experience. As you tuck into a two course feast, you'll be serenaded by the tunes that shaped Detroit's cultural heartbeat.

More than just a music quiz, Sounds Familiar is the perfect combination of your favourite playlist and the best party you've ever been to. This epic event has some serious calibre. It's the only music quiz to have sold out Camden's Roundhouse, supported beloved boy band '5ive' and played Glastonbury more times than David Bowie. 

Expect rounds stuffed full of chart classics, old skool anthems, indie songs, marvellous mash-ups, power ballads, guilty pleasures and over 100 killer tunes from the 60s to the current day. Tickets start from just £8 and sell out fast - so be sure to grab yours before it's too late.
